  Description
  When an NSN/serial number asset is assigned to a kit its visibility is completely lost in WM inventory inquiries. 
  Currently, the only means to locate NSNs/serial numbers within a kit is to utilize the Sets, Kits and Outfits Module and open each individual kit to locate specific serial numbers.
  Impact:

  1. Inability to query for specific serials/NSNs when they become due for maintenance required agency/service required programs.
     In one case we have 72 kits assembled containing 10 serialized line items 5 of which have mandated maintenance
  2. Inability to query NSNs housed within kits to meet service/agency serial number validation requirements
  3. Inability for query for SN's located within kits in response to safety related messages.

  Recommended
  Allow query of NSNs and serial numbers residing within SKOs

  Mission Critical
  Query and identification of serial numbered assets (wherever they may reside) is a critical function of any inventory management system.

  Benefits
  Essential for accountability of assets residing within kits.

  Users
  This affects ALL commands utilizing serial managed components SKOs.
